It sounds like the Ottawa Senators will get Guillaume Latendresse back into the lineup against the Pittsburgh Penguins on Sunday.

Ian Mendes on Twitter

Impact

That's a nice break because Daniel Alfredsson is sidelined with a cold of some kind. Latendresse has one assist, four PIM, a +2 rating and seven shots on goal in three games so far this season. He has marginal fantasy value so far, but has had value in the past, so don't totally count him out.

Guillaume Latendresse has a day-to-day injury | 01/25/2013 1:39 PM

News

Guillaume Latendresse is day-to-day with an undisclosed injury.

Renaud Lavoie on Twitter

Impact

Latendresse will not be available for Friday's game against Tampa Bay. His status for Sunday's contest isn't clear. Starting Friday, Ottawa has four matches in six days, so even a short-term injury could end up costing Latendresse a lot of playing time.

He was awarded a penalty shot midway through third period during Thursday's win over Florida, but he failed to get a shot off on the opportunity. Latendresse has one assist in three games with the Senators early into this campaign. He should rectify that problem before too long though, as he is getting his chances now after not registering a shot in his debut.

"Hockey is hockey, injuries are part of it," said Latendresse, who has played in just 27 games the past two seasons. "I'm 100 percent right now and I have no doubts, but if I have injuries, that's part of the game. It might be my head, it might be something (else). I touch wood. I'm comfortable with my body, but you never know about injuries, so you can't be mad at yourself if they happen." He is penciled in to open the season on the second line with Kyle Turris and Daniel Alfredsson and could be a valuable contributor if he can stay healthy.

Latendresse nears return after 2 years | 01/10/2013 7:53 PM

News

With the lockout winding down, Guillaume Latendresse can finally return to the NHL.

Ottawa Citizen

Impact

Latendresse hasn't played in an NHL game since Dec. 14, 2011 due to a hip injury and a concussion. "The last two years was pretty tough for me, with all the injuries, and missing a few months from the start (this season), it's going to be important to be ready mentally and the confidence needs to be high," he said. "It was a good three, four months to get my head and my hips ready. I don't have any pain right now." Latendresse should get a chance to serve as a top-six forward, but we don't expect him to do too much offensively out of the gate.
